We were aware that Mr. Porter was being urged by leading members of bis party to permit the use of his name in this way, and he was seri- ously considering tbe matter, but we must confess to Deing ‘‘scooped’’ by the Sun in getting an admission of , bis candidacy from him at this time. We can say this much, and we hope without any shadow of treason to the democratic purty, Mr. Porter is by odds the best material the republi- cans have for congress in the First district. He is a republican, deeply dyed, but withal a man high in the respect of all those who value sterling worth, strength of character, good morals and business success, fairly and hon- estly won, While it is not expected of us—not expected nor even asked for by Mr. Porter himself—that we can give him our sopport OVer a dem ocrat, yet we are glad to say that as a Clinton man and a progressive and public spirited man, he would give the district a strictly ‘business ad- ministration’ of the oltice of coogress- man, 98 free as possible from politics and partisanism, If the fates have datermioed that a republican shall represent this district in comgress for the next two years, Jerry Porter would be less offensive to denorats than any man we know of that Sey could rua, Don’t Like His Medicine That Uncle Sam is giving him at San tiago, but he has to tak@ it.
